Chapter 191: It's not easy to be in charge
"Master, how can you hand over the butler's key and account book so easily?"
Bai Shao poured a cup of tea and served it to Lin Mengya, her beautiful eyes full of doubts.
Lin Mengya took the tea, took a sip without hurry, and said:
"Don't you think that Concubine De's return this time is different from the past?"
Lin Mengya was drinking tea while thinking about today's events.
Yesterday, Concubine De gave her a dismount at the gate of the mansion.
Today, I found this woman to make trouble.
Moreover, Jiang Ruqin was also picked up, it seems that it was not a temporary idea.
"I also think it's strange, it is said that Concubine De was really angry that day, so she shouldn't be forgiven so easily, right?"
Bai Qi was the most careful, so he didn't show the same anger as Bai Shao.
It's just that the atmosphere in the room is a little depressing.
"Girl, why is that woman here?"
The people outside are gone, and Qinghu also flashes in.
As soon as he looked at him, he asked Jiang Ruqin.
That woman always wants to harm his little girl, if it weren't for the girl who wanted to leave her alive, now, she would have become a ghost.
"I don't know, let's not go out today."
After tossing for so many days, Lin Mengya was actually a little tired.
It's better to take advantage of these days and take a good rest.
"Besides, this one is not so easy to do. Bai Peony has worked hard lately, let's take a good rest. ”
Speaking of being in charge, Bai Shao also showed a look of watching a good show.
If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, there are hundreds of people in the palace.
Besides, the most valuable things in the palace are in her little vault.
Each master has a small library, and the small library is not considered a public library. It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, so Jiang Ruqin, how to sing this empty city plan.
"What the master said is, this family, whoever loves to be in charge."
Except for Bai Shao, no one knew what Lin Mengya meant.
It's just that, in the eyes of outsiders, Liuxin Courtyard has a bit of a dilapidated taste.
"Congratulations, Miss Hexi, you finally got the right to be in charge."
In Yaxuan's small courtyard, Jiang Ruqin looked at the key in his hand proudly.
My aunt is angry again, but she is a family after all.
The broom star will only make my cousin more and more unlucky, and my aunt also saw this clearly, so she took her back.
What I didn't expect was that as soon as I came back, I would let her take over the palace.
I'm afraid that the woman said nothing but didn't expect that she would have today.
"Bring the account books, and tomorrow morning, let the stewards of each room talk back."
"Yes, miss."
As long as she grasps everything in the house, whether it is her cousin or the woman, she is not allowed to rub and knead her.
It's a pity that this pride lasted until the next day, and something happened in the palace.
"Miss Table, the ingredients in the big stove are insufficient, and you need to take a look."
Before dawn, the mother-in-law who was in charge of managing the kitchen came to Jiang Ruqin's yard to return.
"You can just look at these things, where do you need my young lady to take care of them?"
Jiang Ruqin's newly bought maid Liu'er stood at the door and said very unhappily.
The housekeeper of the kitchen, but the old man of the palace.
is shrewd and sleek, and at the moment, he immediately smiled and said:
"The girl really wishes for me, our palace is no better than elsewhere. The food has to be carefully used, in the past, it was the white peony girl next to the princess who went to see each other in person. Don't be embarrassed for me, if something goes wrong, I can't afford it. ”
The woman was telling the truth, the palace had to buy a batch of new ingredients in three days.
Some fish and shrimp are even more important every day.
Although Bai Peony is not present every time, it must be properly arranged.
She just came from the Liuxin Courtyard, but she said that in the future, these things will be in the hands of Miss Biao.
God, it's a wonder through the ages.
Where did I hear that I want a cousin who has not yet left the cabinet to be in charge?
It's really a wealthy family, it's not something like them that people like can understand.
"Liu'er, since Aunt Fan has eaten like this, then I'll go with it."
It was very uncomfortable to be woken up from her sleep, but in order to be in charge of the Yuwang Mansion better, she had to make an appearance.
Unexpectedly, I went to the kitchen and didn't wait for her to finish checking. The stewards in each room took turns to appear.
In the's clothes, down to the soap corners, and up to the spices used in lavender, she had to inspect them one by one.
In the huge palace, trivial things have to be seen by Jiang Ruqin now.
"I'm tired to death, I look at those people, purely on purpose."
After a busy morning, Jiang Ruqin had time to take a sip of water.
Liu Er gave her a sore leg, but even so, Jiang Ruqin almost felt that she was going to fall apart.
"According to the slave maid, it doesn't look like she deliberately embarrassed Miss. Xu is because Miss is in charge of the family business for the first time, so these people can't figure out Miss's temperament, so they ask for instructions everywhere. ”
Although there are a thousand in the heart, ten thousand are unwilling.
But Jiang Ruqin also understood that what Liu Er said was indeed the case.
But if she was so busy, she had to be exhausted to death.
"Forget it, it's good to get used to it later. By the way, I'll go rest for a while, and go to my aunt's yard to say goodbye in the afternoon. ”
Jiang Ruqin rubbed his waist, he was really a little overwhelmed.
But before her head touched the pillow, there was another knock on the door outside.
Liu Er went out to take a look, turned around, and said with a little helplessness on her face:
"Miss, outside is the steward of each courtyard. I said that today, I will send the monthly silver, and I am waiting for you to get the silver. ”
Monthly silver?
Jiang Ruqin rolled his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face.
She heard that the silver in the treasury of King Yu's mansion was piled up to the brim of even the corners.
As soon as I thought of all this silver, it would all belong to her in the future, and suddenly, I came to the spirit.
"Let's go to the vault."
As soon as he walked into the silver vault, Jiang Ruqin was dumbfounded.
Rows and rows of shelves, empty, where there is a trace of half a cent of silver.
"Where's the silver? Where is the silver? ”
Jiang Ruqin shouted loudly, and the mother-in-law who was in charge of the silver vault immediately said back and forth:
"If you go back to Miss Cousin, the silver has been moved to the princess's small treasury."
Rummaging through, Jiang Ruqin did not have the key to the small library in his hand.
Jiang Ruqin was furious, it turned out that she was actually tricked by Lin Mengya!
"Come on, come with me to the Liuxin Courtyard to ask for silver!"
At this moment, Lin Mengya had long expected such a situation.
By the time Jiang Ruqin brought people to the door, Lin Mengya had already asked people to close the door.
"Lin Mengya, you open the door for me!"
Jiang Ruqin, who was so angry, actually called Lin Mengya's name.
I slapped the door of the Liuxin Courtyard hard, but I didn't expect the door to really open.
Jiang Ruqin stumbled and almost fell into the yard.
"Miss Jiang, please pay attention to your identity. Although you are a housekeeper, the princess is the princess in the end, if you speak disrespectfully, don't blame the princess for participating in your disrespectful relatives. ”
Bai Su, who had cold eyebrows and cold eyes, instantly broke a basin of cold water for Jiang Ruqin.
Although her aunt will support her, in the end, Lin Mengya is still a serious princess.
Her father almost didn't want her daughter because of what happened a while ago.
You can't get into trouble because of other trivial things.
"I ...... I'm just in a hurry, the princess won't be so stingy, right? ”
Obviously, she came to Lin Mengya's trouble with a fierce momentum, but she was scolded by Bai Su.
Jiang Ruqin's heart was a little uncomfortable.
"I'm a slave, so I don't have the right to decide. However, the princess is inside, you can ask yourself. ”
After saying this, Bai Su turned around and went back to the courtyard.
Jiang Ruqin was slightly angry in her heart, and now, even a slave dared to ignore her.
They are all good slaves trained by Lin Mengya!
"Miss, why bother with a slave, don't forget, what are we here for today."
Liu Er tugged on Jiang Ruqin's sleeve and whispered.
That's right, she's here to ask for silver today.
With a slight sneer on the corner of his mouth, he walked into the courtyard.
However, the doors of both the main room and the side rooms were closed.
The courtyard was empty, and even a maid came out.
So, she had to lead a group of people to the door of the main house.
"Go knock."
instructed Liu Er with her eyes, if she went to call the door, it would seem that she had lost her value.
Liu Er stretched out her hand and patted the door, but unexpectedly, no one answered inside.
"Princess, our young lady has something to do with you, please open the door."
A maid naturally doesn't dare to call her by her name.
It's just that Liu Er shouted again and again, but there was still no movement inside.
"Keep knocking, I don't believe it, she can't hear it at all."
Liu Er could only continue to knock on the door, but after knocking for a long time, the door just wouldn't open inside.
Jiang Ruqin was so angry that she almost slammed the door, but after thinking about it, if she really did this, Lin Mengya would definitely not spare her.
Not to mention Lin Mengya, even those clansmen of the royal family will only think that she is arrogant and unreasonable.
This is very unfavorable for her to break into the royal family in the future.
"Cousin, just open the door. I have something to discuss with you. ”
There was no way, Jiang Ruqin could only say softly.
In the middle of the night, a lazy response came from inside:
"I'm resting, what's the matter, let's talk about it in the afternoon."
Jiang Ruqin was so angry that her facial features were distorted, but she didn't expect that the dead woman would play this hand with her.
"Cousin-in-law, did you give me one less key?"
Anyway, she came to ask for the key to the small library today, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't open the door.
Save her from looking at Lin Mengya's face.
"You said the key to the gate in my yard, right? You go to the mother-in-law in the gatehouse and get it, it's just the key to each courtyard, and it's usually placed at the mother-in-law's place. If you want, then please come and lock the door for me every night. ”
Lin Mengya's words instantly made many people behind Jiang Ruqin laugh softly.
